                <li>JP friend code: ?</li>
            </ul>
            <p>SEGA's successor to Project Diva, for better or for worse.</p>
            <p>I've been playing Proseka since the JP beta test came up; I originally dismissed it as a weird Bandori clone with a pointless focus on original characters (I was there for Miku, not these random ass girls and guys!!), but it grew on me pretty quickly, and by the second event, <a href="https://www.sekaipedia.org/wiki/Imprisoned_Marionette">Imprisoned Marionette</a>, I was hooked. I currently mainly play the EN server, but I occasionally still open the JP one as well.</p>
            <p>My initial fav was Shiho (I'm biased towards bassist girls, as an ex-bassist myself), but pretty quickly <a href="https://www.sekaipedia.org/wiki/25-ji,_Nightcord_de.">25ji</a> grew on me, and I think everyone who sees me around online can figure out pretty quickly that my favourite is <a href="https://www.sekaipedia.org/wiki/Asahina_Mafuyu">Mafuyu</a>. I also like Rui and Toya, but Mafuyu is my main girl.</p>
            <p>It's kind of insane to me how big Proseka is, because I remember when it first came out it felt super obscure, but ever since the EN release it's blown up a ton. I went to Fan Expo 2024 in Toronto and the amount of cosplayers and merch was insane, and I even saw a number of dance covers at the Idolfest. What a world we live in...</p>
            <p>Favourite songs:</p>
            <ul>
                <li>waaaaaay too many lol I'll list some eventually</li>

            <p>I actually recently got into this one, I don't play it super religiously as there's no incentive like gacha games have, but it's fun to play when I'm waiting or otherwise feel bored.</p>
            <p>To be quite honest I don't really get the progression in this one, but it has some cool songs and the fact that notes exist in a 3D space presents a unique challenge to me.</p>
            <p>The main reason I downloaded this was bc I saw there was a pretty decent amount of HARDCORE TANO*C tracks, and there's also a decent variety of other stuff like Vocalsynth songs and... Umineko OST?? So I gotta say, I can't complain about that selection.</p>

            </ul>
            <p>I don't really play t7s anymore, but it was my main game for yeeeears before Proseka and I still occasionally open it up for funsies.</p>
            <p>I started playing t7s back in 2015 iirc, and I think I played it pretty religiously until about... 2020? Whenever the AXiS story finished up. I am not kidding when I say I spent thousands on this game -- I was a genuine whale, and that doesn't even take all the CDs and merch I have into account. Like, I probably could've gone to college with all the money I spent on t7s, but oh well... (weirdly I don't regret it btw, it just feels like bizarre history to me these days lmfao)</p>
            <p>This game has some insane history, and it got a lot of love and care up until Motegi (the game's director) felt he was finished with the story and left the team. After that the game sat dormant for about a year before getting a new team (that had lots of great ideas such as NFTs, collabs which Motegi had avoided to preserve the world and story's integrity, and completely switching the focus to brand new characters), and after that I kinda lost interest ever since (and also Proseka came out lol).</p>
            <p>My favourite girl is and always will be Ferb-chan (my first itabag was themed around her!), but I also like Haru, Qruit, and Nero. My favourite group will also always be <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiG2rk3hzgA&list=OLAK5uy_kWJwSUzowyXHUBzofDxfl1C41TWPgP8eQ">The QUEEN of PURPLE</a> 💜💜💜</p>
            <p>Favourite songs:</p>
            <ul>
                <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFT8PCqvLoU">Clash!!!</a> (I could not even begin to tell you how obsessed I was when this first came out)</li>
                <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m7jO9Dvdnk">Majesty</a></li>
                <li>Prizm Rizm</li>
                <li>B.A.A.B</li>
                <li>SEVENTH HAVEN</li>
                <li>HEAVEN'S RAVE</li>
            </ul>
            <p>I also just wanna say, I saw kz perform Seventh Haven and Heaven's Rave live at Digital Stars 2024 in Toronto, and it was THE MOST AWESOME FUCKING THING EVER. I honestly never thought I would get to see it live, especially in my home country of all things, but HOLY FUCKKKKKKK THAT WAS LEGENDARY... I can die in peace now.</p>

            <h3>love live! school idol festival (RIP)</h3>
            <img src="img_games/llsif_banner.jpg" alt="Love Live! School Idol Festival">
            <p>Who didn't play this one? This was my introduction to mobile rhythm games as a whole back in 2015, and what got me hooked on the whole idol gacha/rhythm game schtick. Thanks for ruining my life, Klab!</p>
            <p>This game is long dead at this point, but this used to be my main game before and alongside t7s for awhile. I was a dedicated event tierer (though never too hardcore, I'd usually go for top 1000 or so iirc), I played both EN and JP, and I think I spent a fair but not excessive amount of money on it.</p>
            <p>This was actually my introduction to Love Live as a whole also, prior to SIF I knew nothing about the series... I just wanted to tap circles, man.</p>
            <p>My favourite characters from u's were Eli and Honoka, and from Aqours (my girls!!) I loved Chika and Mari. Chika is probably still my top girl in LL, I have a decent amount of merch for her still...</p>
